| J2EE | The Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE or Java EE) is a collection of related specifications and corresponding documentation that describe an enterprise-level computing architecture for the Java development platform. | | | | | Jackpot Line | A Jackpot Line refers to an area where exceptions are routed. Exceptions may include orders that could not be completed (shortages or WMS error), orders requiring special processing, or weight or size exceptions. The terms Jackpot Lane, or Jackpot Area are also used to describe similar exception areas. | | | | | Java | Java is a high-level, object-oriented programming language developed by Sun Microsystems. It is similar to C++, but has been simplified to eliminate language features that cause common programming errors. Java is a general purpose programming language with a number of features that make the language well-suited for use on the Internet and in heterogeneous environments. Java runs as an interpreted language, which means that the same code can run on different hardware platforms through the use of an underlying interpreter for each hardware and operating system (OS) configuration. | | | | | JavaServer Faces | JavaServer Faces (JSF) technology simplifies building user interfaces (UIs) for Java web applications. Developers can quickly build web applications by assembling reusable UI components on a page, allowing for rapid prototyping and product delivery. Components and accompanying HTML code are compiled and executed in Java J2EE web server containers. | | | | | JDBC | Short for Java Database Connectivity, a Java API that enables Java programs to execute SQL statements. This allows Java programs to interact with any SQL-compliant database. Since nearly all relational database management systems (DBMSs) support SQL, and because Java itself runs on most platforms, JDBC makes it possible to write a single database application that can run on different platforms and interact with different DBMSs. | | | | | JIT (just-in-time) | Inventory management in which materials arrive "just in time" for final preparation and shipment. JIT fulfillment optimizes warehouse space, and reduces inventory holding costs, but requires advanced supply chain management (SCM) skills, to ensure that all components necessary to ship the products arrive in warehouse just in time for final kitting, packing, and shipment. | | | | | JSF | See JavaServer Faces | | | |
